    I use 16W solar panel (dual USB output) and 10000mAh powerbank in my motorcycle trips. There is no free space in my bags to take my Toughbook with me, so I have to use Lenovo Miix 2 8". At the same time it's 5V MicroUSB power input also solves the problem with compact charging :)
    But if you need solar power for your laptop - look at this or similar panel

    This one is 5V2A (USB), 3A/18V(DC)
    But I agree $2000 one is much cooler. Has to be gold color.

    When the batteries drain down to unsafe levels an alarm goes off like in the "Lost" series.
